Can someone out there help me identify this body that came on a RC10 Graphite I just acquired. The body is very rounded and I am not familiar with it. Any help is much appreciated.

Is that the Hot Bodies stealth bomber or something like that? Either that, or maybe something from Dahms.

I think it's a Dahm's Screamer body.

Found this when I was researching the Nascar body that came with an RC10LSO I purchased. I can't tell if yours is one of these or not. The windows don't look the same to me. Maybe on yours they were altered when painted?

What do you guys think?

Or is the Pro-line Vision?

comparing the shape of the window molding line it's definitely not the Dahms and by the curve at the top of the front window and the shape of the sides it's not the proline. I ran the RCPS mostly and it's not that. Looks great but I don't recall it at all.

Thanks for the ideas. I agree, it is definitely not the Dahms nor the Proline. I will keep looking through old magazines to see if I can find it. I am not sure about the A&L? I don't recall seeing one.

Hey I have one of those. :mrgreen:
Don't know what it is either, though. :oops: Maybe the paint will jog someone's memory...

I've been looking through some old magazines trying to figure out what this thing is. It's the side duct that throwing me off. I'm wondering if it's something for a more modern B2 or B3? :?

It's definitely not any of these:

A&L Concept '10
A&L Intruder
Andy's Mohawk
Dahm's Screamer
Dahm's Champion
Dahm's Warrior II
Hot Bodies Stealth Bomber
Parma/PSE Prelude
Pro-Line Magnum
Protoform Desert Stormer


The bodies I can't find pics of are these:

S&K Renegade
S&K Renegade Stage II
S&K(?) Heathen

I do not remember S&K bodies, so no idea there? Interesting that nobody here knows what it is. I have been looking through all of my magazines and cannot find anything at all that matches.

That is definitely a Proline Vision ref# 3072. I have one too:

Mystery solved!

Was there both a Vision and a Vision Low Profile? Or are they the same thing? I've seen both names listed in magazine ads, so I'm just curious.
